TennesseeTullahoma sets annual road funding if locally approved
If two-thirds of Tullahoma's legislative body approves the law, the city must budget 3.8% of its yearly operating budget for local street and road maintenance.
What it does
If two-thirds of the city's legislative body approves the law, Tullahoma must set aside 3.8% of its annual operating budget, with a $1.5 million yearly minimum, for street and road maintenance.
Argument forA yearly minimum could help Tullahoma maintain its streets and roads when 3.8% of its budget is less than $1.5 million.
Argument againstSetting aside this share of the budget could leave less money for other city needs.
More detail
The law directs Tullahoma to set aside part of its annual operating budget for street and road maintenance. The money is for streets and roads within Tullahoma city limits. The law has no effect unless two-thirds of Tullahoma's legislative body approves it. The requirement begins with fiscal year 2025–2026 and applies to each annual operating budget.
